Got fence stain overspray on the van last week but as i havent been using it i havent bothered trying to get it off till now. Thought a bit of panel wipe would do the trick....no...cock!

Any idea how to remove this stuff?

An idiot at a pub I went to used spray fence stain which blew all over the cars in the car park, including my VXR. I couldn't get it off.

It ended up being shifted when it was machine polished by a detailer.

You could try a clay bar.

A Bilt Hamber regular might shift it?

I had overspray that had been on an old bumper of mine for years. Tried various things and nothing worked. Then tried Bilt Hamber clay on it and it came off with hardly any effort.

Water or spirit based fence paint?

Water based clay or tardis.

Spirit based - tardis or thinners.

(usually anyway! and lots of patience)

I have got fence paint all over the side of my car. The paint was autumn red, it looks like it has been in a hit and run
